The Garden Church
It's a church where your bartender could get baptized, where broken marriages are restored, and the last person you'd see in church might be lit on fire by the hope of the Gospel.
The Garden is a church that's not bashful about truth but enthusiastic about rich theology so that Christians young and old might be fully equipped.
We long to see the whole West Valley renewed by the power and beauty of Jesus.

Joseph: You Do You + Other Lies that Will Ruin Your Life
What if the freedom you’ve been chasing is found in surrender?
In a culture obsessed with autonomy and self-determination, obedience feels like a relic of the past. We celebrate independence with phrases like “You do you” or “Be your own hero,” but could this mindset be robbing us of something greater? The Bible teaches that obedience isn’t a limitation—it’s the pathway to God’s blessing and purpose.
Through Joseph’s story, we see a radical trust in God that defied fear, pride, and logic. His quiet integrity and willingness to obey positioned him for a role in God’s larger story—a story that brings freedom, not restriction. Obedience isn’t passive; it’s an act of faith that unlocks power, purpose, and spiritual growth.
Ready to embrace the paradox of obedience? Dive into this message and rediscover the beauty of surrendering to God’s perfect plan.
